Hub TV, the joint venture kids network from Hasbro and Discovery, announced an all-new Duel Masters series at their upfronts on Friday, entitled "Kaijudo: Rise of the Duel Masters".

Duel Masters has inspired a long list of animated series and video games over the years and this is a major coup for the young network competing against Disney, Nick, and Cartoon Network. Kaijudo: Rise of the Duel Masters adds to a slate of boy-oriented programming on The Hub that includes Transformers Prime and G.I. Joe Renegades.

From their press release:
